“this thing should not be mocking anyone”

Just wondering which creature would breed with this guy? He produced offspring?

[unkus]

Very nice explanation. Thank you, AnTiw1.

This pig-poker has been married 3 times? To humans?

Hey.. Hey wait just a minute, bein a Scotch-Irish East Texas Redneck, lutefisk ain’t bad if you got the right Norweigan sweety cookin it. Otherwise yes. Keeler looks like one of those Swede geeks that can’t take the stuff and has to have the “pressed chicken”.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Good lord. The guy looks like an OSTRICH.

ROTFL.

[unkus]

I dated a girl from Midland and she could have fixed anything for dinner and I’d have loved it.

She knew how to cook, too. That’s been many years ago.

My mother’s side of the family were all from Texas. Great people.

Now, that’s funny. But it might be goats.

I haven’t been able to stand that bastard ever since there was cheering on his stupid show when it was announced that Reagan had passed away.

Wow. I've never listened to "A Prairie Home Companion". Is that what's been going on during his show all these years... decades??

[FormerACLUmember]

Three times divorced deranged Marxist scumbag Keillor calls any republican three times divorced a "Polygamist."

What a catch. Right ladies?

[Aria]

Man, that looks like a face created by Hollwood for a monster movie.

I thought his first book, Lake Woebegon, was sidesplitting funny. But several years ago a friend and I went to see him in Portland and it was bizarre...he sing songed a good portion of the performance and I could barely understand it.

[Kickass Conservative]

Looks like Don Imus's imperfect doppelganger to me.

Since I'm sure this douche bag supports Gay Marriage, why would he have a problem with Polygamy?

The more the merrier, right?

Garrison had a great radio voice, about 20 years ago ...

Nowadays, he sounds like a "very old guy", his diction is off ...

and those "Prarie Home Companion" radio skits are effectively NPR "fund raisers" for the (very old) liberal Hubert Humprey fans ... who were big fans of the "golden age of radio" ...

Finally ... he's obtuse and mocks Christianity ...



I guess "one out of four" is the best you can hope for from an ancient Minnesota Liberal, doncha know ?

"The guy looks like an OSTRICH"

Which end?

"Garrison had a great radio voice, about 20 years ago ... Nowadays, he sounds like a "very old guy", his diction is off ..."

He slurs and extends his words, too. I don't think it's due to his stroke. I think it may be intentional, to sound more erudite.

I used to listen to him about once a year (now I don't listen at all, even though I grew up near what is now called Lake Wobegone Trail). His show seemed to have a new material half life of about a year. This means that after one year, about half of the show content would be new. The other half would be the same old songs and comments from earlier shows. It's interesting to contrast this with Rush. Rush's content half life is about an hour. This with no support staff doing research. Prairie Home has a staff of about 20, and only one hour a week of show, yet it can only manage to generate an occasional new thought.
